Heh, love that goofy original Power Rangers movie. Actually saw some of it being filmed and met Jason David Frank & Amy Jo Johnson as a kid during my time in Australia.
Sorta. it was the closing song of the movie, so it played over the last scene and the credits, I think. I just remember that was the first soundtrack CD I ever bought and that song was my fave.
Heh, well there is that long-running in-joke among the flyboy fighter-jock types that they all listen to Van Halen.
But yeah, don't use 5150, not really representative of the time period. I guess you could go with one of their bomb albums from the 90s, which never connected with anyone, but the music' still pretty cool. It'd be more obscure than the classics everyone knows though.
Latest TV spot uses "Ready to Go" by Republica. Good choice for a 90s film but it came out (August 1996) after the majority of the timeline of CM (1995) so if its included in the film, it's a bit of an anachronism.

Supposed list of songs used in the movie from the memory of one of the Reddit leakers:
crazy on you - Heart
Kiss me deadly - Lita Ford
whatta man - salt N Peppa
Connection - Elastica
Only happy when it rains - Garbage
Crush with eyeliner - R.E.M.
Waterfalls - TLC
You gotta be - Des'ree
Come as you are - Nirvanna
Just a girl - No doubt
Man on the moon - R.E.M.
please Me post man - The Marvelettes
Celebrity skin - Hole
Down by the water - Pj Harvey
Cannonball - The breeders
That was the Nirvana song I expected, lol.
Btw, this was posted several days ago, before the TV Spot with "Celebrity Skin," and one of the reaction tweets referenced another song on there, so I'm inclined to believe it's somewhat accurate.
So from that track list, it seems the posters who guessed Cannonball, Just a Girl, Come As You Are, and Only Happy When it Rains had some good instincts. Cool to see TLC and Salt-N-Pepa show up there since they were big in the early 90s.

I love Soundgarden and I like Black Hole Sun, but it's wildly overrated. Since they already did grunge with Come As You Are, I'm fine with them skipping it. I was hoping more for some Verruca Salt or Breeders. Hole and No Doubt were good fits, though.
I don't know if Wannabe would be the best fit for the film. It might be the most well-known and first single of the Spice Girls, but sometimes picking the most famous one isn't always best for a soundtrack.
Maybe "Stop" might fit in better?
This was one of the Spice Girls only #2 singles that failed to get to #1. But it's probably one of their most well known and most loved after all these years compared to some of the other ones that got the top spot.
Or "Who do you think you are?"
I suppose there is some Whitney Houston from the very early 90s. Oh and Bryan Adams too.
